Hi all, talking about dual CPU machine.
Since I’m doing 3d stuff for mine own pleasure (not earning money), I like the poor man route regarding hardware.
So I set up a couple of machine sporting a X5650 overclocked to 4gh.
Those 2 machine give me an average of 900 points Cinebench R15 each.
Therefore Rendering with distributed results 900+900= 1800 for total sum of 520 € (which is including the cost for used cpu, mobo and mem).
I saw from the benchmark that a dual Xeon X5650 machine delivers much less, only 1300 points, obviously it’s missing the overclock factor.
Do you think that a dual cpu machine is still convenient regarding for example to speed up the Denoise job?
Thanks and keep up the wondeful job!
